Answer:

Thickened Liquids

Explanation:

Thickened liquids give you a better control of the liquid in your mouth. They help slow down the flow rate of liquids,which lessens the chance of liquid going into your airway.

What is impaired swallowing?

Difficulty swallowing, scientifically called dysphagia or impaired swallowing, can be caused both by nerve changes and by situations related to the esophagus or throat, such as

  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Stroke
  • Myasthenia gravis
  • and Muscular dystrophy, for example.

With this information, we can conclude that a resident with a swallowing problem may need thickened liquids to continue the nutrition without problems, but a swallowing rehabilitation must be carried out by the health professional.
